Yesterday the Oval Office.

NEW: Yesterday, the Justice Department sent armed marshals to warn former U.S. pardon attorney Liz Oyer not to disclose internal DOJ information during her Senate testimony. Today, Oyer is speaking out to condemn the DOJ’s actions and defend the rule of law.

WOW: Thousands are currently protesting in Boston. This is just one of more than 1200 'Hands Off' protests underway today across the nation as people rise up against the Trump-Musk regime. (via Rob Way)

OMG, watch @maddow.msnbc.com and her exposure of the imaginary person, Ron Vara, who got us into this tariff mess. Peter Navarro made him up & Trump fell for it.

OMG! Maddow is showing how Peter Navarro has used a fake persona to promote his crazy tariff policies! #MomSky Ron Vara does not exist. www.chronicle.com/article/trum...

I wonder how many people realize the tariff on auto parts causes car insurance premiums to go up?

My Animal Crossing island just got hit with 10% tariffs

Turns out prosecutors didn’t buy Mace’s story about being brutally assaulted by an activist who shook her hand.

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

Absolutely shameful.👇 "None of the top 20 law firms in the US have so far offered their 'unconditional support' to an effort by Perkins Coie to fight sanctions imposed by the Trump administration." www.ft.com/content/494a...

Gotta love Bernie! ❤️ Still. In. It. To. Win. It. 😎✨

Hey, Politico -- I consider myself to have "long-term standing in the private legal community" and I have been willing to speak out almost every single day. And, I'm not alone. Yes, there is widespread cowardice among law firms, but don't ignore those refusing to bow down. Defiantly, Marc Elias

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick: "Let's say Social Security didn't send out their checks this month, my mother-in-law wouldn't call and complain. She just wouldn't."

You never shut up so how are you silenced.

Democratic Leaders Stand Real Still In Hopes No One Notices Them

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

I will not be voting for the partisan bill coming before the Senate that will further cement the Trump Administration’s chaos and reckless actions that are hurting working families and our economy. Read: substack.com/@senschiff/n...

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

I've been out so didn't know we had this piece coming. But our new write-up explains how this switcheroo will work. Dems give up 60 vote threshold in exchange for being allowed to offer amendments that will fail. That's what they're doing. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/after-h...

I’m running for Governor. As an engineer, I solve problems and deliver results—that’s what we’ve done for six years. Now, we face new challenges. We need bold leadership to protect our rights & build health & wealth for every Michigander. I’m all in. Let’s #StandTall for Michigan!

Dems. Hold the line. Do not vote to fund DOGE (the government). Make the GOP fund the government or let them shut it down. They’re the majority.

SHUT IT DOWN!!

Dicks Sporting Goods is one of the good guys! 🏆

AOC: It's really because Republicans— they’re very thin skinned and they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt. And so they have to vote on censure resolutions.

I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

Hope to see you there

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Is US media covering the Romania case because it looks like a very big deal.
